Instructions

  1. Wash and slice bitter gourds into thick rounds or vertical slices. Sprinkle with salt and set aside for 20-30 minutes to reduce bitterness. Rinse and pat dry.

  3. In the same wok, add spices, fry the bitter gourd slices until they are golden brown. Add salt and mix well. Cook with lid for 8-10 minutes on slow flame.
  4. Add caramelized onions to karela spices mixture and cover the wok with a lid. Cook on slow flame for about 2 minutes for flavors to be assimilated.
